“In a time when existing iPhones were starting to look a little – dare I say – pedestrian in comparison to what Samsung, LG, and others were doing in hardware, the iPhone X has accelerated through and can spar with the best of them,” the website wrote.

The iPhone 8 and 5.5 inch-screen 8 Plus are similar to the the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus but boast wireless charging and better processors and cameras. They hit shops from September 22 and cost £699 to £949.

The X, the Roman numeral for ten, will be available to buy on November 3.
